Chapter 2: Dancing through the doorway
The train ride was a blur; it had gone by quickly since the three of them had taken it a number of times. They talked, Hermione read, they all enjoyed an assortment of candy from the trolley (courtesy of Harry) and in what seemed like a blink of an eye, they were already sitting in the great hall watching first years being sorted. After the ceremony had finished, Dumbledore got up to make his welcoming speech.
"Welcome
one and all, to yet another year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and
Wizardry. As always, Mr. Filch, our caretaker has asked me to inform
you..."
"I Think the list of places that are out of
bounds for us grows every year," Ron sighed in Harry's ear as
Dumbledore continued with his speech, in which he was now announcing
the date of Quidditch tryouts.
"And lastly I would like
to inform you all of the exchange that you have all received letters
about," Dumbledore continued. "We have sent off two
students from Hogwarts to go to school at Yksnillow Hpesoj. Those two
students were Dean Thomas and Seamus Finnagin."
"That
means more room in the dormitory," Ron said excitedly to Harry.
"Just us and Neville!"
"And now let me
introduce to you the students from Yksnillow Hpesoj School of Magical
Practice in Canada," Dumbledore went on. "Lauren Youssiem
and Ellie Tennenhouse"
"Well that's a pair of
strange names," Harry said to Ron.
"Don't make
fun," Hermione intervened. "Our names probably will seem
strange to them, besides, we don't even know them. Don't judge a book
by its cover." Harry and Ron sniggered to themselves at
Hermione's choice of words when suddenly the huge doors to Hogwarts
burst open and two (girls') figures came dancing through into the
great hall.
Author's note: Sorry this chapter was so short, but I had to break it off here!
